When driving
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■
Weight of the load ●
Do not exceed the maximum axle weight ra ting or the total vehicle weight rating.●
Even if the total load of occupant’s weight and the cargo load is less than the total
load capacity, do not apply the load unevenly. Improper loading may cause dete-
rioration of steering or br aking control which may cause death or serious injury.■
Roof luggage carrier pr ecautions (if equipped)
To use the roof rails as a roof luggage carr ier, you must fit the roof rails with two or
more genuine Lexus cross ra ils or their equivalent.
When you load cargo on the roof lu ggage carrier, observe the following:●
Place the cargo so that its weight is di stributed evenly between the front and rear
axles. ●
If loading long or wide cargo, never exc eed the vehicle overall length or width.
(  P. 886)●
Before driving, make sure the cargo is securely fastened on the roof luggage car-
rier. ●
Loading cargo on the roof luggage carrier will make the center of the vehicle
gravity higher. Avoid high speeds, sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or
abrupt maneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover
due to failure to operate this vehicle correct ly and result in death or serious injury.●
If driving for a long distance, on rough ro ads, or at high speed s, stop the vehicle
now and then during the trip to make sure the cargo re mains in its place.●
Do not exceed 154 lb. (70 kg) cargo weight on the roof luggage carrier.
